Bankrupt Chrysler Getting $8 Billion MORE From Taxpayers

Who
knows whether Chrysler really will emerge from the "surgical"
bankruptcy in 30 days. Our gut is that if the government is
projecting something and it sounds too rosy, then it probably is.

Either way, the move into bankruptcy opens up Chrysler to more
government cash. Lots more.

The
AP, citing senior government officials, says the automaker
will get $8 billion more in government aid to rebuild the
company. Of course, the company was always going to get funding
in bankruptcy from the government, since without it, they'd be
headed straight to liquidation and that'd put too many workers on
the street to quickly.
